    And she even uses the fold & sew technique for the arrowheads! Somebody just asked a question about that recently.

    I was wondering something.

    She alternated the rows and staggered every other row by cutting one set of arrows in half. Wouldn't you have to make up about 1/2" of seam allowance?

    That was neat with the fold and sew so we would not have to deal with a bias edge.

    I had the same question, so I went back and looked very carefully... There is a bit of white at the end of the arrow point between arrows. On the row without the cut in half one, the point of the last arrow is right on the border, no extra white. I think that's where the extra 1/2" is made up. Did that make sense?

    Don't practice until you get it right, practice until you can't get it wrong

    I was able to find them by typing in "dies" in the search box under the "Quilt Shop" tab at the top of the screen:
    https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop/browse?q=die

    She used the tumbler and the wedge.

    Yes, thank you. I'm glad I wasn't the only one. Hopefully this pattern will be in the next block magazine and will include this tip. I can also see it as a border pattern.
